25 - Be Here Now - TYLER SIMMONDS

On this week's episode we're joined by Tyler Simmonds. Tyler grew up in North Preston and from a young age he has been living with mental illness. After struggling to find a way to voice what he was feeling, Tyler decided to open up and post online a short film he had made describing his experiences with anxiety and depression. He received a lot of amazing feedback and with that decided he could be a voice for helping others living with mental illness. Tyler has since had a book published about mindfulness and he's created the Still Alive Foundation: which is aimed at helping others living with mental illness and reducing suicide rates. Among other things he currently has on the go, Tyler just released an Art Collaboration called Boys Don't Cry with friend of the show Peter Hemsworth AKA BZLY. Listen in to hear it all!
